i was seen at a&e where the staff where fantastic polite and friendly but then was passed on to ward 209,

What could be improved

disgraceful care. left in a treatment room freezing cold for hours no explanations of the delay my husband had to hold my iv fluids up as there was no drip stand, the dr was rude and abrupt, they told me i was ectopic with no explanation of what that meant and then left. i was then left in a bay from 1030 til 915 the next morning distressed and alone until i had a scan which proved i wa not ectopic, no staff spoke to me my drip ran out so i stopped it myself. no apologies were given and i was made to feel as if i were an inconvenience to the staff.

Anything else?

if i ever need a gynae procedure it will NOT be at RDH i will go to QMC
